-- UPDATE! Sony have released a new SmartWatch 2 update on 14 January 2015 which FIXES the bugs introduced with the December update. The time and date should now display correctly on all JJW Watchfaces. Thanks for your patience and continued support! --

An original JJW watchface for the Sony(TM) SmartWatch 2. This watchface brings class, style and ANIMATED GEARS to your wrist! The first and original creator of 'automatic-style' watchfaces for the Sony SmartWatch 2. This watchface displays animated gears when the screen is powered on in active mode only. It does NOT display animated gears whilst in standby/low power mode in order to save battery.

Be sure to checkout my other watchface creations for the Sony(TM) SmartWatch 2 and if you like this watchface, please consider giving me a good rating as it inspires me to come up with even better designs!

Note: This is a native watchface/clock for the Sony(TM) SmartWatch 2 and works in active and low power mode to save your watch's battery. By using this watchface you should still continue to get the 3-5 day battery life from your watch unlike other 'pseudo-watchface apps' which chew through your battery.

Installation instructions:

1. Download app via Google Play
2. Click the 'SmartWatch 2' notification in the notifications bar to open the SmartWatch 2 configuration app
3. Click 'Edit watch faces' button
4. Create a new watchface or edit an existing one
5. Click 'Clocks'
6. Choose the new watchface from the list of watchfaces
7. Enjoy!


Further detailed instructions can be found on Sony's blog here: http://blogs.sonymobile.com/2014/04/22/smartwatch-2-400-apps-new-styles-and-new-features/

Please send me an email if you have troubles getting it to install and I'll do my best to help.

Troubleshooting (watchface doesn't display or show up in the list of clocks after installing it from Google Play):

1. Turn off your watch and turn it back on
2. Turn off your phone and turn it back on
3. Turn off bluetooth on your phone and turn it back on
4. Create a new watchface template and see if you can add the new watchface.
If this fails, you may need to take further steps. Continue to follow the steps below:
5. Uninstall the Sony(TM) Smart Connect app
6. Un-pair your SmartWatch with your phone
7. Reinstall the Sony(TM) Smart Connect app
8. Re-pair your SmartWatch with your phone
9. Follow steps 1-4 again.


Thanks goes to Naheel from XDA forums for providing the guide on how to make custom watchfaces.
